Mic Mac Likes this wine:
August 9, 2023 - Not as good as I recall other vintages though probably should have decanted as the last couple of glasses were much deeper and longer.

February 5, 2022 - Pretty good tonight. More dark rather than red fruited, a bit spicy, herbal and salty. Love the sandy tannins – fairly assertive still for a six year old Grenache. Very good and will certainly live a bit.

August 15, 2021 - Dark ruby coloured, plum and tobacco on the nose. Body is over medium, heavy tannins, orange rind and stoniness that is very focused and hits the mid-palate lingering through the finish. Doesn’t fill the mouth, needs time to come together and for the tannin to soften.

August 26, 2019 - Plush and silky with hearty red and darker fruits, but without being at all heavy. Not confectionery - the opposite in fact. Quite serious and probably needs a few more years to fully unwind. Still, very enjoyable drinking.

June 25, 2019 - Return to Aus; 6/23/2019-7/5/2019 (Adelaide, South Australia wine regions, Tassie, Yarra, etc.): Lots of red fruits. Again a bit more intense and after a day of a lot of intense wines I didn't really have a palate for this one. Would need to revisit at another time to see if that's a fair assessment.
